History

Established in 1983.

Marilyn’s has a long history in West Vancouver. Thirty years ago, Marilyn began selling clothes out of her front hall. She spent her spare time scouring the fashion exchange in search of high-​end threads, which she then sold to friends out of her home. Her eye for timeless, flattering ensembles earned her a devoted following, when the fledgling business threatened to take over the whole house Marilyn moved the business to the boathouse on the beach in front of her home. The location was magical and many people traveled to see this little boutique by the sea. It wasn’t long, that the business moved up to Caulfeild Village where it grew to its present size.
